Real Madrid's spending doesn't worry me at all. First of all, they are overpaying, way too much. You might argue Kaka's fee is worth it, but Ronaldo's is not, it should be around Kaka's or if we're going strictly off of player performances, a bit lower.
Secondly, this was their starting defense last season :
Gabriel Heinze : A walking timebomb. How United got Real to pay 10million euros for him when he was already 29 is beyond me.
Pepe : Never convinced me as world-class, and he's got 6 more games of suspension.
Cannavaro : Gone.
Sergio Ramos : A year ago was one of the best fullbacks in the world, he was shit this season. Heinze rubbed off on him.
If Perez was smart, he'd go for Vidic. But Vidic doesn't sell that many jerseys. We're talking about the defense that leaked 6 against Barcelona at home, and 5 on aggregate against Liverpool.

i dont think he failed. He just did not have the players he wanted. He had players like Anelka and Ballack and Lampard.. but he was coach of Brazil and Portugal. The players he had were not able to accomodate the style he wanted. When he asked for certain players he was not allowed to sign them so how could he turn Chelsea into the attractive team he wanted it to be.
At Madrid he would be able to play his attacking system and get results.
Hiddink did well at Chelsea cuz he realized that team has the players to play a certain way.. solid, strong and defensive.. not the Scolari way.

Laporta: 'Moratti asked for Eto'o, no agreement for Ibra'
"We have not reached any agreement for Ibrahimovic”. Joan Laporta denies the agreement for the acquisition of the Inter Swedish striker. The president of Barcelona said from New York to Catalunya Radio: "There was a meeting with Moratti because Mourinho likes Eto'o. We will try to renew the contract with him, but not at all costs. He’s admired by many clubs, we will do our best to keep him because for me he is the best striker in the world"

i have to disagree here fred, i think that Forlan has found his club in atletico. he pretty much dragged the team through the end of teh season, he scored rakers with his left and his right(seriously,is he left or right footed?) and twice has overhauled Eto'o in the last few weeks of the season to finish with the golden boot. it is easy to write a player off when he flops at one club but excels elsewhere(sissoko anyone?i bet the english still think he is useless) looking objectively i have to say he would be a player i would snap up given the chance
no,not really......listening to the englsih media when KAka was announced you would have thought they had spent millions on Carlton Cole
absolutely sublime, the problem with Real was raul,carlos,morientes,etc....who got del bosque the sack and thought they were bigger than the club
